Wilson Sophia vs Usher Mini Dancer II

A friend of mine just purchased a pair of the Usher Mini Dancer II with the diamond tweeters. I was impressed with just how good this speaker sounds. Extended, sophisticated highs with lots of 'sparkle' and 'air' and robust tunefull bass with a good dose of impact.

I was leaning towards a used pair of Wilson Sophia II's as my 'box' speaker of choice, but now I am not so sure. Wonder how these two speakers would compare? A used set of Sophia's will run around $7k, about twice the cost of a nice used pair of Mini Dancer....

Hello...I used to own the BE-10s before the diamond upgrade. I paired it with both Pass XA160 and Ayre MXR monoblocks. To my hears I felt the Ushers sounded best with the Ayre.

They are indeed beautiful speakers but they do require a fairly large room to sound their best. I had them in a 25x19 room.
